When trials of life are hard-pressing,
Oh, turn to the lord, for he sees.
He's the Source and the Father of mercies;
Too, the God of all comfort is He.
No matter how great is the trial,
Still greater His mercy and grace.
He'll not test us more than we're able
But will give us a way of escape.
In sufferings and all tribulations.
He lovingly comforts His own
That we might in turn comfort others,
Their troubled hearts gently console.
So when trials so greatly assail us,
No trust should we put in ourselves.
The Source and the Father of mercies
Will all our anxieties quell.
~ Loise Pinkerton Fritz
Blessed be God, even the Father of
our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies,
and the God of all comfort.
2 Cor. 1:3
